THE StJN, SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 21, 1919. i i1 Itl" "Uuii M il'.i ,1 111, iTT 11 I' II flES STRIKE ARMISTICE URGED BY PALMER Attorney-General Tlcnds for Half Year's Truce Botwccu Labor and Capital. NO PANACEA IN IDLENKS Speeding Up of Production1 Would Tend to Solve Hijrli Cost Problem Fnr.KPORT, P., Sept. 20 An abtolute industrial armistice for ilx month was orsefl' by Attorney-Genera) Palmer her to-day to permit the solution fcf economic problems arlfjng out of the change's, wrouBht by war. Such a period of freedom from unrest, h declared, would result soon In In creased production which would brine about an 'era of "easier living, and better times" for all. On the-ethcr hand,- the Attorney-General warned, selfliSi de mands by any one clasn cannot stimulate' the national prosperity or permanently benefit eton those obtaining- such de mands by force. He stroncly discount enanced strikes. "Labor l asking a larger share of the Joint product of money nnd labor and there la much merit In the claim," he said, "but the chance of jrcttinir It Is not advanced nor tho justice of It more widely recognised by the refueal of labor to produce." ' The campaign to reduce the cost of living-,. which ho Ib directing, evidently was foremost In the Attorney-General's mind, In his upecch delivered nt a re union of the Keventy. eighth Regiment of Pennsylvania Volunteers, which nlao was a homecoming celebration for men who served In the world war. He said that although many problems beret men's minds Irt these days of reconstruc tion, there Is none which cannot be worked out "In the general Interest" In a government where the peoplo are the only miens. "But unless we shall be satisfied 'with that which Is for the general Interest," he continued, "and do not Insist upftn that which Is In our own particular In terest, there will be trouble and delay In tho settlement; If men could learn to be patlrnt under condition which have resulted from the world war, un til a more nccurato estimate of the pos sibilities of th situation can bo made, all our proDlcm,i wllf be sooner solved; but If Impatience and selfishness shall rulo and Immediate forceful or direct nctlon bo taken, It Is perfectly obvious that nothing but disorder and delay can result. "The crying need of the world Just now Is for penos, nnd not political peace between governments alone, but Indus trial peace among men also. The things for which men fight are never settled whllo the war Is on. An armistice, must come; heads .must cooU and anger must spend Itself before men can sit together and know whnt Is best for themselves aad give due consideration to the rights of others. "Ifwo could hnvo an absolute Indus trial armistice In America for six months; If both the necessary Ingredi ents of capital, that Is, both money and labor, would be active and constant In the problems of production, the busy peaceful days would soon yield a spirit which would make It possible for men Jo solve the problems which now con front us. Labor is asking a larger share of thojolnt product of money and labor, and there is much merit In the claim; but tho chance of Rettlnr It Is not advanced nor the justice of It more widely recognized by the refusal of labor to, produce, "Idleness Jj no panacea for the Ills from which tho country suffers. AVork may be. The coat of life Is only en hanced by tho idleness of men; it can be reduced by the Intelligent Industry of all. Other remedies may bring us part way on tho road, but they will never bring iis tho whole distance. These remedies should and will be applied, but the most effective cure that can be de vised' will be the general acceptance by all our people- of the golden opportuni ties of this gncat land of plenty for all who give the best that is In them."
